 Hi Mike, I drove all the way from Ft Rucker (near Dothan) to have Dr Freeman as my surgeon.  I will tell you it was well worth it.  


I will live each day in the mindful present

Topic: RE: Food
I am 10 days Post-op and finding that I am having a little bit of a problem myself. I am allowed to eat soft foods, but anything other than eggs including the protien shakes makes me "froth" and "dump" it seems like. I had the "dry heaves" all-day yesterday. The protien shakes seem to make things worse...I like you am open to suggestions. I think I will keep a food log on things for sure that make me "not feel so good"

Hello everyone. Still feeling a little fatigued. I have been walking and trying to enjoy some of this beautiful sun. Even though I am weak, I feel I have made one of the most positive steps toward great health. Thanks everyone for the support!.

refried beans , mashed potatoes with gravy things that are moist and not dense.  EAT VERY SMALL AMOUNTS THOUGH or you may dump .  I DID as I couldnt fathom such a small amout as about 4 or 5 tablespoons filling me up ..
I never had to do the liquids though ....,My doc gave me food like i told you ..    sugar free jellos too but the KEY TO ALL is small small amounts I think ..
If not sure ask your Dr but none of those gave me problems .

Mike if you choose Dr. Freeman you will not be sorry.  He is fantastic and his aftercare is wonderful.  I have heard of the other 2 but know nothing about them.  Dr Freeman did my surgery 7 1/2 years ago and has also did 2 other surgeries that was not related to the weight loss and I did wonderful.  His assistant is just awesome also.  I always say with them you 2 for the price of one.
